Following in Hitler's Footsteps

One Big (UN)-happy Dysfunctional American Family

america has discarded its own roots for the roots of Hitler by http://www.topnews.in/

January 1, 2012 President Obama signed the National Defense Act of America. Most Americans are unaware the law even exists to render an opinion on the law. Looking back in history there is a parallel, February 28, 1933 Hitler coerces President Hindenburg to sign article 48, an "emergency" decree authorizing Hitler                to suspend all civil rights, arrest (and execute) any suspicious person. Ron Paul would be one of the first of a small handful to see the similarity, to see that this is no longer America. A land without social and economic justice may as well sell off the copper in the statue of liberty and replace her with plastic. i am well aware that Obama is not Hitler; I am also aware that he signed a law taking us further down an already slippery-post-9-1-1 slope...

The parallel is the suspension of civil rights for political expediency, the draconian laws that replace the freedom and liberty. None of us know the ultimate outcome of the NDAA act of 2012, or who will use such a law, when, why and whom they will inevitably incarcerate and torture under said act. Are the Occupy Wall-Streeters in their cross hairs, or the next wave of antiwar protestors, caught protesting against the invasion of Iran?

One in four children goes to bed hungry regularly in America. The food-bank I volunteer in has 535 families showing up each week two times a week for food. They wait in line many hours for boxes of Mac'n'cheese, etc. Their numbers have gone up during the so-called Obama eco-recovery. Spending on bombs, depleted uranium cannon shells, etc. could employ many of these displaced workers. Perhaps the Republicans can pass a law that we drug test them before we feed them, men, women and babies all made to pee in a cup for supper. Lets spend billions on Iran and make the hungry drug test for their Mac'n'Cheese boxes.

I'm not proposing more class welfare" but I am really big on CCC (Teddy Roosevelt-style Civilian Conservation Corp projects that build wind-farms and Olive-Oil Biodiesel energy farms for a sustainable future. This makes more sense than unleashing the hell of (irony of ironies) "smart" bombs on another third-world oil dictatorship. Is it just me? I want to see freedom and democracy here at home, in North America, a real, working democracy in our own land before we go off to police others.

Recently I thought I had seen the depths of the American' governments hypocrisy, but the Obama State Department got out the shovel and dug a little deeper into the depths of said hypocrisy. Maldives' President Mohamed Nasheed is one of the Earth's biggest advocates on Global Warming ecology. Recently he was forced out of office at virtual gunpoint" The US State Department has cozied up to his nemesis like they are our NDAA 2012-kissing-cousin.
President Mohamed Nasheed had the most open democracy in the history of the Maldives; the US State Department's actions have me wondering if this was another US-CIA-led coup? So much for being the moral authority of the globe.

Someday schools and teachers will have everything that they need and the Air Force will hold a bake sale for a new bomber" Seen on the back of a parents' Suburu. The US is now number 33 in science, outpaced by countries like India. Apparently our government wants us stupid and afraid of them. Otherwise they would not be forcing us to follow in Hitler's foot-steps.
